Smooth-brain?

There are two points at hand here:

A.  WNBA makes one-fifth the proportion of revenues in salary that the NBA does.  

B. "A" is solely the case, because there is a ceiling on "more than" a fifth of revenue, BECAUSE each team in the league has other predominantly fixed costs that have them in the red.  

Just because "B" is true, doesn't mean that's what the players are worth! 

If the league ramped revenues, a proportion of that would go to incremental revenues - as long as they remained in the black - up UNTIL it got to a parity with the NBA.  

You're clueless about startups. 

It's about the preservation of cash - at the front end. 

Once a company is generating free cash flow, employees are paid on par with other established companies.  

If not?  You lose your employees!
